Guide Price £600,000-£625,000. This house is perfectly situated, being just a short walk to both Leyton and Leytonstone tube stations - convenient for commuters - and as it’s located close to the vibrant Francis Road area, with shops, cafes and bars nearby, ideal for those wanting to make the most of everything this popular area has to offer.
Sitting attractively in tree-lined Oakdale Road, the house is well-proportioned and generously sized; you enter the property via a path running next to the walled garden. The front aspect is neat, with a cream-painted exterior and black detailing on the windows and over the wooden, partially glazed front door, which is set back inside an open porch.
This house is a brilliant opportunity for you to make your own mark. It is ripe for modernisation - a blank canvas, waiting for you to shape what is already a handsome property into something totally stunning, according to your own personal style and needs. What’s more, it’s on the market with the benefit of being chain-free.
As you enter the property, the glass fanlight over the door allows light to flood into the hall. Making your way down the hallway, you’ll notice the generous ceiling height and the wooden floors - a lovely characterful touch to the entrance - which run down to the back of the house to the kitchen.
Taking the first door on the left, you’ll step into your through lounge. This is one of the highlights of this property, as it’s such a wonderful size - a whopping 23 feet. Acres of space and you have plenty of options in terms of configuration. The current owners have used it as a sitting room and dining area - but there’s lots of flexibility for you to arrange it to suit you, with ample space for sitting, dining, working - or all three! It has an enviable double aspect, with a characterful bay window to the front and large window to the rear. This is an airy, light space as a result, as well as being generously proportioned with the same high ceiling as the hall. This could be an absolute show-stopper with just a little decorative revamp.
Back out into the hallway now and walking towards your kitchen, it’s worth noting that you could easily transform the large area under the stairs into a capacious under-stairs storage cupboard, where you could stash all your coats, shoes, and more besides, keeping the area clutter-free and streamlined to make it a truly inviting hallway.
The next room you’ll encounter is the kitchen. This is generously-sized with enough space for a dining area. It currently has a built-in cupboard behind the entrance door, which maximises the storage on offer. The sink and cooker are located by the window and the kitchen is fitted in an L shape to maximise the space, but this room is spacious enough to offer multiple layouts. You could transform this room into a gorgeous, well-proportioned kitchen/diner, where family and guests can gather, socialise and chat - a social hub and the heart of the home.
You step through the kitchen door into a small hallway, which provides not only more handy built-in storage, but also your family bathroom. This currently comprises a bath with a shower over, w/c, and sink. There’s an obscured glass window with an aspect to the rear of the property. There’s even an extra room off the hallway with a separate w/c and sink - a useful addition for any family home - but it could potentially be remodeled either into a utility, or to add a walk-in shower to the existing bathroom. Once again, the possibilities for remodeling are many, depending on what you wanted out of the space, but decoration alone would transform this area and make it a beautiful, luxe bathroom to relax and soak away the stresses and strains of the day.
Back through the kitchen/diner now and into the hall, and up the stairs now to discover what is on offer on the first floor. All of your bedrooms are doubles, and there’s added character to the layout, with the split level arrangement of the rooms, but the undoubted jewel of upstairs is the master bedroom. It looks out to the front with two large windows letting the sunlight in. It would comfortably house a king-sized bed. Currently, there’s a wealth of built-in storage to two sides of the room - three huge floor to ceiling cupboards with double doored wardrobes topped by three cupboards - even the most indulgent fashionistas would be able to easily house their entire collection in there. Flanking the chimney breast on the other side of the room are two further cupboards. Once more, with a little decorative input, this could be a truly stunning sanctuary for you to relax in, hidden away from the rest of the house.
Turning out of the master bedroom and heading towards the back of the house, you’ll find your next bedroom, again a good-sized double, with a window to the rear overlooking the garden. This has a southerly aspect, so light floods in all day, making the two rear-facing bedrooms - bedroom three is the same - beautifully light and airy.
Ascending further up a few more steps, you’ll find your third double bedroom. This room is the second largest of the bedrooms and again it looks out over the garden. What’s more, on this level there’s an added bonus. Another w/c - extremely handy to have upstairs in addition to the bathroom and w/c downstairs.
The lovely, enclosed back garden has a favourable south-east facing aspect, meaning you’ll get to enjoy the sun all day long - good news for your plants too! It’s a great size, with more than enough room for some al fresco dining. Currently, the garden is neat, low maintenance and tidy with a good-sized area of paving, surrounded by borders, but as with the rest of the house, it’s a fantastic starting point for you to bring your own style to proceedings and make it your own.
Oakdale Road is a sought-after road in the heart of the community, situated in the Grove Green area, just a stone’s throw from Francis Road, with its local favourites such as the Morny Bakehouse, Marmelo Kitchen and the popular Northcote and Heathcote pubs, amongst the wonderful services and amenities on offer there. It is well-connected by public transport, with both Leyton and Leytonstone tubes nearby to get you further afield, but there’s a wealth of leisure options available nearby, including gorgeous green spaces, like the Coronation Gardens and Sidmouth Park, as well as Wanstead Flats and Hackney Marshes not far away. This is an area with plenty of fantastic pubs, cafes, bars, and shops; with the perfect location, this home is just waiting for someone to snap it up and create something truly special within its walls.
